It combines a water-cooled motor and corrosion-resistant components for durable operation in marine environments. Designed to remain idle until the float activates, the unit minimizes battery drain and simplifies installation by eliminating the need for a separate float switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow quickly does this pump remove bilge water?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pump moves up to 1100 gallons per hour (GPH) at 12 volts, making it suitable for routine bilge clearance and managing moderate ingress. Performance will vary with head height and hose layout, so expect lower flow at higher discharge elevations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated flow: 1100 GPH (at optimal conditions)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum recommended head: 2.5 meters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutlet diameter: 28.5 mm (1-1\/8\") for standard hose fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePower draw: approximately 3.8 A at 12 V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes installation and operation simple aboard a boat?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is straightforward because the pump includes a built-in float switch, removing the need to mount or wire a separate float. A one-meter wire lead and a snap-off strainer simplify placement and routine cleaning, while the submersible design fits inside most bilge wells.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt-in float switch: automatic on\/off with rising water\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 m wire lead for connection to a 12 V source or marine fuse panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSnap-off strainer for easy debris removal and maintenance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact dimensions: 155 x 90 x 115 mm to suit confined bilge spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow durable and maintenance-friendly is the pump?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Xztrdi pump uses a water-cooled motor and corrosion-resistant materials for extended service in wet, salty conditions. Its thermoplastic housing and stainless steel shaft resist rust, while moisture-tight seals and anti-airlock design reduce the likelihood of motor damage from intermittent operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThermoplastic ABS housing for high-impact resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel shaft to resist corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWater-cooled motor and anti-airlock design for reliability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMoisture-tight seals to protect internal components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this pump be energy efficient for long-term use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pump is designed to remain completely off until the internal float switch activates, so it does not draw power when the bilge is dry. When it runs, the motor uses about 3.8 amps at 12 volts, providing a balance of flow and reasonable energy consumption compared with manual pumps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZero standby power draw until float engages\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOperating current: 3.8 A at 12 V\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAutomatic shutoff when water level drops to protect battery life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSnap-off strainer reduces clogging and motor strain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWho is this for: Boat owners, small yacht crews, and marine maintenance professionals who want a compact, automatic bilge pump that is easy to install and built to withstand marine conditions. It’s suited for sailboats, powerboats, tenders, and workboats where a self-activating, low-maintenance pump with a 1-1\/8\" outlet and reliable stainless components is desired. Consider pump placement, discharge routing, and battery capacity to ensure optimal performance for your vessel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Does this pump need a separate float switch?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: No. The Xztrdi model includes a built-in float switch, so no external float is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: What size hose fits the outlet?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Use a 1-1\/8\" (approximately 28.5 mm) hose to match the pump's outlet diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Xztrdi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59350266446172,"sku":"B0DVZ4L857","price":38.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1059\/5604\/9244\/files\/xztrdi-bilge-pump-front-view.jpg?v=1791114315","url":"https:\/\/sportium.co.uk\/products\/xztrdi-12v-1100gph-automatic-marine-bilge-pump-built-in-float-switch-1-1-8-outlet-corrosion-resistant","provider":"Sportium Sports And Outdoors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
